Friday Night Extra 4.5.18 with charity abseiler Mandie Gaskin.

Mandie took part in the abseil last Saturday to raise funds for Ingatestone C of E. Junior school and St. Edmund & St. Mary Parish church. She had never done anything like this before. Feeling it is always good to try something new outside her comfort zone, together with it being for a good cause, she took part. Getting over the edge was the most difficult part. Once halfway down, she said she loved the experience. Mandie can be supported towards her target of raising £150 by going to her just giving page. Musically tonight we had a new exclusive self-penned track from Sophie Griffiths. We also had a feature on Pet Sounds, seen by many as the most influential pop album of all time. It was astonishing to hear that, using a modern calculation, it cost over half  a million dollars to produce. No wonder the record company were worried! They need not have been. Phyl requested the Adam Faith song, ‘What do you want if you don’t want money? which led to listeners contacting to say what they thought was more important in life than money. Answers included contentment, peace, friendship and love.

Tonight’s playlist

Simon & Garfunkle – Bridge over troubled waters

Coldplay – Adventures of a lifetime – chosen by Mandie

Ken Dodd – Tears – chosen by Mandie

Beatles – In my life – chosen by Mandie

Cliff Bennett & the Rebel Rousers – Got to get you into my life – remembering Roy Young, who turned down being in the Beatles in their Hamburg days because he had a regular gig at a club.

Joe Stilgoe – Waterloo sunset

Stevie Wonder – You are the sunshine of my life – requested by Patrick – ranked by Rollingstone at 281 in their list of the 500 greatest songs of all time.

Bucks Fizz – Making your mind up – to celebrate the birth of Jo Aston

Lisa Harman – The world in seven day – a self-penned exclusive by Lisa, only twelve days from finishing playing a world cruise.

Jamie Cullum – Love sick blues – Patrick knew it was a big hot in the early 60s by Frank Ifield, who was interviewed by Bob Simpson on the station this week.

 

Beach Boys – Pet Sounds feature. Jonty loves this album and proved it by buying an original pressing of the vinyl album in Cambridge.

Caroline no, I just wasn’t made for these times, Pet sounds, God only knows (vocals only). We all loved the God only knows, available on the Pet Sounds Sessions CD.

George Ezra – Budapest – requested by Adrian

Dolly Parton & Pentatonix – Jolene

Jerry Rafferty – Take the money and run

James Brown – I feel good – remembering drummer John “Jabo” Starks.
